Six Feet Up Helps Launch SugarCane.org

Share

The Brazilian Sugarcane Industry Association (UNICA) needed a new online presence to serve as a global information hub on sugarcane products and their global economic, environmental and social benefits.

Stratacomm, a full-service strategic communications firm in Washington, D.C., asked Six Feet Up to be their development partner for the project, with a very tight timeline. The developers, project managers, themers and admins at Six Feet Up worked together to take the SugarCane.org website from concept to launch in under four weeks.

The Plone-based website includes a customized "Related Items" functionality, YouTube widgets and a custom blog with a blog promo capability. Six Feet Up also implemented the visual theme for the site with a special emphasis on an interface that was cross-browser and optimized for mobile devices. A complete user success story about the Unica website is available in our portfolio. Six Feet Up also serves as web host for the site.

"Six Feet Up is a valuable partner, especially in a pinch. When we need to extend our own development capacity, they integrate well with our internal team and deliver high-quality software on time and on budget," said Matt Bowen, the Director of Technology Services at Stratacomm.
